m ADVANCES
Union Pacific Got Up One
and One-Half Points. Low
Priced Specialties in Keen
Demand.
NEW YORK.—Business was on a
large scale at the outset on the stock
exchange Wednesday and the market
was materially above Tuesday's clos
ing for most of the important stocks.
Union Pacific got up 11-2. Large frac
tional advances were made in other
favorites.
Speculation broadened and , there
was a large accumulation of all class
es of stocks, with low-priced special
ties in keen demand. Standard rail
road stocks did not advance much as
a rule beyond their first prices, real
izing sales holding them in check
while the advance was continued at
other points. This selling ultimately
brought about reactions all around.
Liberal selling for both accounts
drove the average of prices below
Tuesday’s closing, at which the level
of the market began to show signs
of support. Subsequently there was
a tjjoderaie advance all along the line,
but there was the entire absence of
the recent snap and animation to
dealings. Some of the usually inac
tive stocks became conspicuous.'vu ral
ly.
Bonds were steady.
Persistent hammering on Union
Pacino discouraged the holders of the
stock and there was rather active sell
ing. The action of this stock dom
inated the rest es the list and there
was a general break in sympathy.
Around 2 o’clock there was a rally
which reached a point in Union Pa
cific, but the rest of the list did not
benefit much.

Weather reporto- continue to show
high temperatures and clear weather
ruling generally in Arkansas, Okla
homa and Texas, with all points in
Oklahoma 100 to 105, while Texas and
Arkansas temperatures range from
95 to 100. This is not excessive ex
cept for the fact that the country is
already dry and those temperatures
tend to tax the plant beyond recupe
ration where the moisture Is not in the
ground to enable ft to revive over
night.
Reports of a private nature con
tinue very bad and today Miss Giles
issues her semi-monthly report show
ing an average condition of 70 per
cent., made up on reports of date of
August 9th. This compares with 70
two weeks ago and 76.6 one month
ago and 80 lasft year on the same
date.
She points out that the greatest de
cline in condition has taken place lr.
Louisiana 7 per cent; Teias 10 per
cent.; Arkansas 5 per cent,; and Ok
lahoma 9 per cent. She also gives an
estimate of the crop, based on infor
rnation in hand up to this time, at 11,-
600,000 bales and states that this Is
rather over.than under the yield as in
dicated by returns from her correa
pondents.
She algo states that the abandon
ment as shown by her report is 6.7
and says the plant is developing a
larae weed In some sections at the
expense of proper fruitage.
Altogether the report is v very bul
lish document and if it reflects the
next government figures we may ex
pect to see a marked decrease as com
pared with August 2nd. Nothwithstand

NEW YORK—Extensive realising pre
vented the market from making a bet

weather advloeß obth of which were de
cidedly bullish. Shorts w-ere the beat
buyers until commission housee began
to pick UP some cotton during the af

crop Is practically a failure and even
sections which were promising a week
ago are now rapidly deteriorating under
the continued Intense heat. Hpecuatlve
buyers are however timid at these prices
For the present scalping operations
seem best on any good dips until the

Galveston is the largest export port
in the United States, New Orleans
second and Savannah third. A com
parison with the total number of
bales exported last year from these
three ports with the figures of today
is quite interesting. From Galveston

gust Ist, 19u9, 3,138,489 bales. New
Orleans, season 1907-08, 1,870,709; to

nah, season 1907-08, 892,081; to Au
gust. Ist, 1909, 921,172 halos. This
shows from the three ports almost
one million bales in excess of the
